Tho Blind In Chinn.

Mr.. W. II. Murray, says S-ieace, has
been the means of introducing into China
a system of writing the Chinese characters
in raised print. When we consider the
complexity and multitude (about 4, ,0O0
of Chinese characters, and remember
that the smallest of China's eighteen
provinces is equal in extent to England
land England has 40, 900 blind), the vast
ness of this philanthropic work will be
apparent. Mr.. Murray noted the actual
sounds used in speaking Chinese, aud
succeeded in reducing these to 400, each
being represented by a different arrange
ment of dots. He tried his first expert
ment on blind beggar taken from the
streets, and in six weeks taught the boy
TO read, and even to write little. The
fame Of this experiment soon spread, and
pupils crowded TO be taught. The sys-
was extended to include music, and TO
adopt itself TO the various dialects-no
mean task, since the Bible must be
printed in eight different sets of charac-
tiers to be understood all through China

Useful Hints.

Whiting or ammonia in the water is
preferable to soap for cleaning windows
or paint.
The lustre of morocco may be restored
by vanishing it with the white of an egg.
Apply with sponge.
Washing the hands twice a day with
cornmcal, and rubbing on little glycerine
at night, will keep them soft and white.
To remove grease from coat collars and
the glossy look from the elbows and
seams, rub with cloth dipped in ammonia,
The most effectual remedy fer Shiny
and greasy drain pipes is copperas dis
solved and left to work gradually through
the pipe.
If the bcdstead creaks at each move
ment of the sleeper, remove the Stats and
wrap the end of each in old newspapers.
This will prove a complete silencer.
If the wall about the stove has been
smoked by the stove, cover the black
patches with gum-shcllac, and they will
not strike through either paint or kalso-
mine.
Carpets should be thoroughly beaten
on the wrong side first, and then or
the right side; after which spots may bu
removed by the use of ox-gall or ammonia
and water.
Furniture needs cleaning as much as
woodwork. 1t may be washed with warm
soapsuds quickly, wiped dry, and then
rubbed with an oily cloth. To polish it
rub with rotten stone and sweet oil.
Clean off the oil and polish with chamois
skin.
When hard finished walls have been
kalsomined, the soiled coats should be
washed or scraped off before a new one
is put on. This is the most disagreeable
part Of the process. The furniture should
be covered as the lime makes spots that
are removed with difficulty, especially
upon black walnut.

FARM AND GARDEN.
RnisInr Pork Cheaply.

We need more grass and clover, and
less corn, upon which TO make our pork.
More grass and clover means cheaper
growth and less disease Just as the
great corn and pork producing lands
have been developed, has swine disease
sprung up and Increased, because our
swine are given monotonous diet of dry,
oily food. Grass and clover are the foods
of nature, and the swine harvest them.
They require little preparation of the
ground for them, and no cultivation.
When pastured they build up, rather
than exhaust, the land; and it can not be
successfully disputed that they are
essential factors in the production or the
cheapest pork. Let the pigs farrowed in
the spring be put on grass and clover as
soon rs they are fit TO be grazcd, and kept
on, them as long as they arc palatable,
and the result will be pig not fat, but
In good condition and thrifty, that until
fall has large, healthy bones and muscle
and vigorous appetite for corn. And
then it may be fed corn largely, for this
will put fat on the large frame the
pasture has made, and the hog is vigorous
enough 10 digest the corn well and il the
hog is fstted rapidly and marketed as
soon as fully fat, it is the cheapest pork
that can be made-the cheapest, not
counting loss from disease. But swine
plague rarely invades the pasture; its
favorite place of appearance is in the
small lot, paved with cobs and manure.
The hog summcrcd on grass and clover is
so vigorous that it rarely sickens when
being fattened on corn largely, but also
other food, and in clean quarters with
pure water. .-Amoricdn Agricultuist.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS
How TO Paper Rooms.

This is not a poetic subject, aud is a
work that all avoid who can, yet it has
TO be done, and often the amount is so
trifling that many win do il themselves
rather than bother with employing pro-
fessional. For such some instructions
may be useful. The task is not as diff
cult as might be imagined. To clean the
wall with a solution of white glue makes
a good beginning. In making the paste,
add an ounce of pulverizeG alum to every
pound of sifted -four, mix smoothly with
cold water, and pour over it gently, but
quickly, boiling water, stirring con-
stantly. When done il should stand
until perfectly cold. The wall should be
smooth, and if dirty or greasy spots ap-
pear on it before papering, it should
be washed with lyc. The edge of
the paper must be neatly trimmed
down to the pattern. A long table
or wide board should be provided
upon which to lay the paper. Then all
the full brcadths required for the room
can be cut and should be matched. Al
ways begin at the right hand side and
work to the left. Lay the brcadths as
cut, one on another, and spread the top
one with paste. In putting on the wall,
carefully adjust the top to its place,
gently pressing it with large, soft
cloth, first down the middle of the
breadth and then to the edge. When
the paper is all on, the border may be
tackled on or pasted, as desired.
In selecting wall paper, even of cheap
quality, much good taste may be dis
played. Striking contrasts should be
avoided; choose neutral tints and colors
that harmonize with the general tone of
the surroundings. If the ceilings are
low, paper which runs perpendicularly
will make them appear higher. Wall
paper is usually half yard wide and
contains eight yards to the roll
After papering a room no fire should
be made in it for several days or until en-
tirely dry.

Butter that Rcruses to Come.

When butter maker has but ono COW,
or only a few cows, the usual difficulty
When butter won't come is that the cream
is kept too long to get enough for a
lhurning, so that it gets too old and sour.
This may be avoided by adding milk
enough to make the necessary bulk and
churning oftencr. When it is desirable
to keep cream, salting it heavily will help
preserve it and make churning easier.
When there is habitual trouble about
churning, scalding the new milk by set
ting II over Kettle of boiling water will
help the cream to rise and make the
churning easy.
When the cream is in proper condition,
churning Is largely question of temper
Ature. There is seldom a case in which
butter will not come at some degree. Late
IN tho milking season when the churning
gradually grows moro difficult, gradual
rise OF temperature in the cream when
rhurning generally proves a remedy. 1t
is sometimes found necessary to run up
as high as seventy degrees. The butter
IN suah-c cases is poor, but poor butter is
better than -none. Occasionally cream
will defy every effort, even when it seems
to be OF the proper agc'and temperature
In such cases. it has recently been sug-
gestcd that the cream has an unusual
chemical condition which suggests vine
gar as remedy; but have not had an
opportunity to test the suggestion. If
our correspondent or any one else has a
churning that proves too stubborn for
every other means, let him thoroughly
mix good cider vinegar at the rate of a
pint to four gallons of cream at sixty-two
degrees, and after letting it stand half an
hour, churn and cport.-Professor l.. b.
